Ovulation already?

Question

I'm CD8 today, Jan 15th and took a Clearblue Advanced test and got a flashing smiley which means high. But I'm not due to ovulate until CD 15 which will be Jan 23rd. I took the test stick out and it doesn't even look that dark. I took one yesterday and it had an empty circle so it was negative. So is the test wrong or is Glow, Ovia, and FF wrong? Also, I never got it confirmed by a dr but I think I may have had a chemical pregnancy last cycle. Could that have anything to do with it? My hubby and I have started the "have sex every other day" technique this cycle so even if I am ovulating early, we will have it covered with the baby dance. Tia!

Answer

The Clearblue Advanced also measures your estrogen increase, which happens before the LH surge. You get the flashing smiley result when your estrogen is elevated but the LH portion of the test (the only thing most OPKs measure) is still negative. The non-flashing smiley appears when the LH portion of the test is positive. Some people get the flashing smile for several days before the solid one,

Here were mine. They’ll be even.

Hi there! Going by the strip I would say that's a negative result. The second line has to be at least as dark as the control line. I've heard the digital tests can be wonky. I've always had the best luck with the stand alone test strips. They're way cheaper too! Hope this helps 🥰
